    yes persuasion checks are weighted by the action you are doing. using INT, to reason with a dog, is going to be a hug harder sell, then compassion and hugging it. the problem is, its largely hidden, which is the "correct" one. like, using INT to reason with a dog is hard. but, using INT to...

    yeah, act 2. i move forward, then leaped over the bridge to save the kids mom, directly. then, continued into the GY via the tunnel. ... then the hardest boss to date.. a dog. straight up gave up on the dog. left, and went to the town. I did hit the scarecrow first and was owned there as well.

    Personal betrayal. People don't think logically. Like, many, misread the titles and just assumed, "hurr, you are copying our game, we invented battle royales!" but, its not that generic. They are pissed, because they specifically invited and worked with the team on Unreal engine 4, and...

    yeah, never got a chance to figure out how to cheese the dallis fight myself. (Aside from quickly noticing the ladder. read too many strats spoiling it. Fav one, came out yesterday.

    some do, some dont. Fortify does. (provides phsy a) mend metal does not. (restores phys a) yeah, need to do that with everything. haha. 2 in a martial skill for teleport. (cloak and dagger, tactial retreat, phoenix dive, or spread your wings.) 2 in geo for fortify. (worth for decay break...

    In the sense, finesse armor is balanced for AR/MR. sure. but you can beef up either with spells. Fortify/steel, or hydro MR spells.

    hrm. yeah. I know of two. but it occurs to me, both involve asking someone to do it... There must be an "oops, I murdered everyone, and still need this collar off" option.

    ha. reading the pizza discussion from back when is amusing now. And yeah, I feel like the only direction this show can go is, a teamup with Michael and the humans pretending things are going well. Otherwise, I don't see the legs. even this premier.

    what parts seemed shark jumping? I mean, you allude to it... but, literally jumping over a shark on waterskis seems totally plausible and in context for this series.

    my aero/hydro started weak. low damage. what shock/freeze she does do, often is 90% vs allies. Some things to help. Teleport is of course the big Aero spell. Tornado later. Savage sortilage-crit. combine Nails+boots of all allies. (adds immune to slipping on ice). some key hydro combos...

    more specifically. warfare is ALL physical damage. including spells, such as necromancer. same with the crit multi from scoundrel. all sources of damage.

    Think I cleared everything before final act 1 assault.. noticing The Beast questline seems empty. Anyone do his? like Sebille "talk to someone in act 2." Lohse, talk to someone in driftwood" Beast:"dwarf in arena gave me a key". uh.? Wondering if I missed something, or nah, he has no real...

    sometimes. yeah. I noticed that too. horrible design choice. it DOES tell you... but you have to click on the choices first. very bizarre. Runes are another similarly odd UI. Pretty much EVERY other item magic pockets from one to other as needed. But, not runes. Runes need to be in the...

    well its a dialogue heavy rpg... Characters and talking to them, are half the appeal. its not an action game. The animals represent a significant number of characters. Theres a good number of quests and exp associated. act 1 has buddy, emmie and birdie at least. dont remember if the bear...

    no need to play the first. Story wise this one takes place 1000 years later. Smack dab in the middle of the EARLIER games. It seems to be a lynchpin uniting the entire history. So, the entire franchise is getting referenced alot here. Timeline. Dragon commander-10k years in the past. first...

    I've notice shields seem VERY good. nigh unkillable if you wield a shield. and yeah, shield throw is op as well. The massive arm buffs also mean you don't get CC'd much. Rogues do a truck load of damage yeah. My 2h war was well behind my rogue, but partially due to using a finesse spear, while...

    yeah, my main has pet pal, and pretty sure I talked to the cat before even talking to the red prince. I grabbed the prince then, for the early game. And booted him once I had ifan. (Booted ifan for beast when I got him.) The cat followed me for a while, not sure when I first lost him...

    Its DECAY. not disease that also makes healing deal damage. My cat is stuck following red prince for some reason.

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    doable. Its a tough fight. say if you want strats, or want to figure it out on your own. I reset ALOT to do it. Collar is a bit of a psa. its really easy to escape, and there are several quests in the area, which are incomplete if you escape to early. haha. Taking your collar off early...

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    yeah, does seem to. its good in that its harder to cheese. but, yeah, I have not figured out the caveat to splitting party damage. phys/magic. it seems purely negative atm. Its not really that diff from like fire and water though, I suppose. but there must be some benefit to it.

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    I cant decide party members atm. I went custom, Enchanter. Hydro-Air. heavy on hydro. so I am the healing mostly. I want, Ifan, Beast, Sebille, AND Lohse.. Wouldnt mind Fane either. but already need to cut one. Sebille and Ifan I think are the two in line. Ifan-fighter, Beast-knight...

    on the other hand. its also funnier when you catastrophically fuck up, due to overlooking various interactions. A game designed for pure tactical play, especially pvp its best to have clear and upfront descriptions of what a play will do. A TCG. or, x-com for the more direct comparison. A game...

    one more day. This feature trailer today, is a good rundown of what makes the game. I'll be finishing up 24 challenges in PoE before hitting this up. so a few more days for me, before I dive in. so, no reviews, etc from me for a bit. at 23/24. need lvl 90, echo shrine, or 20 skillgem, or...

    yeah. it looks neat and fun and all. I wonder how the building and traps will be balanced. feel like each will be entirely useless without dumb AI walking into them.. I also, pinpointed right on the, what the fuck? I outright questioned teh management. how does management make this...

    did Andrianne have a sex change? yeah. B or c. Pretty typical MacFarlane stuff. Very basic jokes. Above average for network budget, but not nearly cable level. Maybe intentional to "look fake" on purpose? The good was humanizing the characters. A workplace comedy on a starship is a solid...

    yeah, ever review I'm seeing is nothing but praise. all saying the same things. "looks great. well acted. shot fantastic. very creepy. A bit too many obvious jumpscares, but nothing as obnoxious as blumhouse baghul."

    Presumably thats part of the idea. More creepy that way. Superficially, its the friendly facade. But look too long or too close, and you see the cracks in it, and its wrongness.. A child particularly might overlook, the things that are wrong. looking into it, 1988. Straight remake. Split...

    I think Pennywise does need to be updated. Clowns are shown as horrific monsters 90% of the time in popular culture these days. and have been for the last 30 years at least. Pennywise using the clown facade doesnt make sense. no kid would find a clown trustworthy or innocent anymore. To...
